Gnr. Jim Illingworth

Reporting to Camera

"Today is 14th April 1945. My name is Gunner Illingworth and I live in Cheshire. I’m at present in Belsen camp doing guard duty on the SS men. The things I have seen in this camp are beyond describing. When you actually see them for yourselves, you know what you’re fighting for here. Pictures in the paper can’t describe it at all. The things they’ve committed, well, nobody would think they were human at all. "
